The Design: Tools and Techniques (DTT) SubTAG is focused on the tools and methods that ensure Human Engineering (HE) can enhance human system interfaces and prevent human error or injury. The SubTAG is concerned with tools, techniques, analyses, and databases which facilitate: 1) human performance considerations throughout a system's lifecycle; and 2) the measurable impact HE has on manpower, personnel, training, safety, health and biomedical requirements, and survivability.

Five key functions are defined for the DTT SubTAG. These are: 1) to develop and maintain a detailed, categorized list of HE tools and methods; 2) to provide a repository where government-owned HE tools and related training can be housed and shared; 3) to identify gaps where HE tools and methods are needed; 4) to spur joint efforts that will promote the development of needed tools and methods that enhance HE equipment, systems, and facilities designs; and 5) to provide a forum for the exchange of technical information and identification of points of-contact within the DoD, other government agencies, and affiliated organizations.
